I guess you're right, it's not that simple. Basically, the logic goes like this: > if (party_like_its_1989) { // -retro > MakeRootTile(pWin); > backFlag |=3D CWBackPixmap; > } > else { > pWin->backgroundState =3D BackgroundPixel; > if (whiteRoot) // -wr > pWin->background.pixel =3D pScreen->whitePixel; > else > pWin->background.pixel =3D pScreen->blackPixel; > backFlag |=3D CWBackPixel; > } So it's special "blackPixel" colormap entry, not simply "solid black". I g= uess we're better off properly documenting how users can select 1989-style (-ret= ro) or solid white (-wr) backgrounds. Another option would be to look into how OpenBSD patches it, but I don't fe= el motivated enough. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
